Mélenchon wants to leave NATO & security threats
Jean-Luc Mélenchon is launching his diplomatic vision for 2027 with a proposal for a major break. In parallel, Europe's security is under surveillance in the face of Russian threats, while the conflict between Iran and the United States intensifies in the Middle East.
For the 2027 presidential election, Jean-Luc Mélenchon proposes that France leave NATO (the Western defense alliance) to move closer to China. This project would radically change the country's military strategy and international alliances.
This proposal comes as the Baltic states (Estonia, Latvia, Lithuania) report Russian destabilization plans on Europe's eastern flank. Moscow is reportedly preparing "hybrid actions," such as cyberattacks or drone provocations, increasing the risk of security incidents for alliance member countries, including France.
Further afield, the security of trade is threatened by an escalation between Iran and the United States in the Strait of Hormuz, a strategic area for global maritime transport. An oil tanker was hit by a projectile there following direct exchanges of fire, a situation that weighs on the stability of international trade routes.
